aerc is a text-based email client written in Go. It was originally developed by Drew DeVault in 2019 and released under the MIT License.
aerc places emphasis on the use of standard tools such as the user's preferred text editor for email composition and the system terminal pager for reading emails. It encourages the use of plain text email over HTML email and managing email workflows using command line utilities.
